'Three Sisters: The End of the Project’ - an audio play co-created by James Marriott and Lena Šimić, and produced by Platform. This speculative theatre is set in the late 2030s conveying the emotional realities of life in a Britain impacted by climate chaos. Building on Anton Chekhov’s classic play, the work takes us deep into questions of how might a transition unfold and how might we live. It is an enthralling audio piece driven by a powerful cast of 11 professional actors. Premiering at TWT, available on the festival FM podcast site and presented with a live panel discussion.
